Water Conservation and Sustainability

Management of water is an issue that has received much greater national and global attention in recent years. Australia is the driest inhabited continent in the world and our region can be a very dry one. The ongoing drought and the potential impacts of climate change, clearly highlight the need for a strategic approach to water supply and usage. Tamworth Regional Council is committed to working with our community to achieve sustainable water use across the region.

Water should never again be something that is taken for granted. So, even when the region’s rivers are flowing and the dams are full, we still need to use this precious resource as efficiently as possible.

As a waterwise region, there are a range of measures you can take to save water right across the home and garden as well as water efficient practices for businesses, all of which will help you to save money.

Choosing water-efficient products can help you save both water and money. The waterwise product labelling system has three labels that cover consumer, outdoor and water and sewerage products to help you.
